vocal nodule 1 Year, 2 Months ago Karma: 0  
My brother is working as a teacher since 7 years and recently his voice is not clear. We consulted with the doctor and found that he has a vocal nodule which is a common problem for teachers. Doctor advised to go for a surgery, but we heard that speech therapy will also help him, is it so? or if the surgery is the remedy then my brother likes to go to India, so please suggest a good hospital in south India? thanks in advance.

Speech Therapy is the best treatment for vocal nodules. Apart from that there are few to do's:

1. Long periods of singing (which cannot be the case as far as your brother's is concerned) should be avoided.
2. He should limit yelling and screaming and shouting.
3.Resting of voice should be practiced. In fact this can be done - by making it a point not to talk for 2 or 3 hrs a day - it is often practiced by yogis and is called mouna vratham

Hi there, you can ask your brother to lower the strain on his vocal cords, by using an amplifier and speakers, so that he can speak softly and still be heard by the students. The problem is due to overuse and excessive strain on his vocal cords. The suggestions mentioned in the earlier post are worth it, except that what the Yogis do is to take a vow not to speak for days or months at a time. No need for anything drastic as that.

Hi,
In case of surgery you can contact the KKR ENT HOSPITAL and research center in Tamilnadu. This is the link to their web site http://www.kkrenthospital.org/
Recently my friend had undergone a micro ear surgery at this hospital. He was very satisfied by the services and after care facilities…………..
